Michael J. McCleary replied to Michael McCullough's discussion So Called Spirit Science

Michael J. McCleary replied to Luara's discussion Science as only one way of knowing

Michael J. McCleary replied to Gary C.'s discussion What is the best response to "Jesus loves you"?

Michael J. McCleary replied to Amanda Schneider's discussion Atheist is a Bad Word
"Exactly. It's not something I throw around and thrust in peoples faces just for shock value, but the moment someone (in a perfectly "secular conversation" which has no reason to have anything to do with their religion) puts it out…"
